Absolutely, drawer pull hardware. I've found 5 or 6 matching ones from this site thus far. Thanks for looking Jon
 

Congrats on another good hunt

Thanks Art. Digging tons of iron does have its advantages. In addition to these finds I probably pulled 15-20 pieces of iron
 

Great finds steve, you've got some history over your way! Admittedly, I don't come on treasurenet as much as I should and/or used to. I miss seeing all the awesomeness from everyone. It was much easier to post and reply from my computer, now that I use just my phone, it's a pain in the......

Killer finds yet again!

Thanks Chris. We're very lucky all over the NorthEast as you also demonstrated on your last post. Thanks for looking and I'm glad you found some time to get out (with OD)

My only motivation for finding things is to send Abe into a fury. You should see the guy go when he's amped up. He'll destroy a whole hillside in minutes.

Nice hunt man :icon_thumleft: You're killing it lately. I really like the stock buckle piece and the DB is awesome too. I hope to get out some next week, weather permitting.
 

Congrats on the finds, sweet Draped Bust:icon_thumright:
